Really useful for comparisons

I would like to get your authorization to publish them in PAM 382 thread of Puretime in RG !!
It will be important for the accuracy of this future replica

I can't believe people spend $27k on freaking bronze watch! More money than sense. You could buy a solid gold 140 for less!

I dont mind getting patina on a rep or a micro brand of 1k. I just don't see how people do it with a 27k watch.

Would soaking your watch in acid not kill the seals over time though

For the guys who were lucky enough to actually get the call to purchase the 382 or 507 from the boutique, they retailed at $11,600 and $13,200 respectively. In the second hand market they seem to change hands around $20k, maybe a bit more for the 382.

In regards to the acid, it depends on the type. Citric acid (as would be present in lemon juice) has little to no effect on the rubber that would be used for the seals.

Some enlarged pics of bezel knurling from mvyzfr1 pics

We will see the knurling of the rep !!!.... See also the redish colour (it is a bit enhanced, not by me)

That will be one of the flaws in the rep, like PAM 389

This watch right here is a must-have IMO. Might wait for a better noob release or something, but I will own this someday!

I have heard than KW is releasing this watch in few weeks, but this is not yet confirmed.

Regarding decorated movements P.9000 from ZFac and from KW, they bare very similar but the main difference is that KW has decoration jewels made like real jewels and ZFac has not "real" jewels but a kind of painted jewels or a plastic material filling a hole, ZFac "jewels" have not real appearance. The rest is similar. Anyway I prefer KW decoration, it is more credible

I hope KW gets a more accurate bezel knurling than ZFac in PAM 382 samples and PAM 389 reps
